Aged Resident of Lyons Found Dead in Home

John Currigan, Sr., 80, a lifelong resident of Lyons, was found dead early 
Saturday evening at his home in Lyons.  He was found by Mrs. Kate Burch, of 
Lyons.  He was last seen alive Friday evening when he was a dinner guest at the 
home of his son, John Currigan, Jr., and family.  He had intended to attend the 
graduation exercises of his grandson, Jack Currigan, but complained of feeling 
ill and returned to his home where he lived alone.

Coroner Harry Myers was called and said he believed Mr. Currigan had been dead 
since late Friday evening or early Saturday morning.  Death was believed to 
have been the result of a stroke.

He was born December 8, 1862, in Lyons and had spent his entire life there.  
Besides his son, he is survived by a grandson, Jack Currigan; a granddaughter, 
Mrs. Verne Galloup and a niece, Mrs. James Hopkins, all of Lyons.

Funeral services will be held Tuesday morning at 9 o’clock at SS. Peter and 
Paul church, Ionia.  Rev. Fr. John S. Fons will officiate and burial will be in 
Mt. Olivet cemetery.
